Happy Jack Posted November 9, 2020 Posted November 9, 2020 I don't know why anyone is interested in this ... he hasn't even bothered to label the control knobs. 🤨 Quote

PatrickJ Posted November 9, 2020 Posted November 9, 2020 I feel angry these items are being sold. Quote

mep Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 I had the pleasure if showing his eBay site to a guitarist collegue of mine today. He was suitably gobsmacked to say the least! 1 Quote
madshadows Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 He's one of my saved sellers on Ebay, purely for the entertainment factor !! 😜 John 😎 Quote
shug Posted November 10, 2020 Posted November 10, 2020 I love it! Bit steep at £403,mind. If he lived nearer we'd be friends... Quote

hiram.k.hackenbacker Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 My fault for watching it on eBay, but I’ve had a message from the seller. Apparently, “This is too close to the original so might get wiped from ebay any day, so get it while I can still sell it here... already banned on Reverb!” That day can’t come soon enough IMHO. I note with interest that the price has dropped by £50. 2 Quote

I'm struggling to understand his eBay ratings - they seem overwhelmingly positive. I'm not saying he's gaming it but it looks like he may have more than 1 repeat buyer 🤔. 1 person bought 3 in a row.

mep Posted November 11, 2020 Posted November 11, 2020 Oops. Yes I see it now. His feedback has been remarked up here before. Maybe he has a market that doesn't include people like us! Quote

NikNik Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 Love the hi-fi knobs. And what's going on with the heel? Interesting TRC. And who needs decals when you have access to a Sharpie? Quote
